Like all industries, sports is being transformed by globalisation, digitalisation, and more recently COVID-19. These trends are also changing the sports sponsorship landscape. In this episode of dotLAB Radio, Adrien Bouchet, Senior Associate Dean and Warren Clinic Endowed Professor of Sport Management in the Collins College of Business at the University of Tulsa, discusses how modern sports organisations, sports sponsorship and commercial deals are evolving. Prior to academia, Adrien spent ten years working with teams in the NFL, Major League Baseball and the American Hockey League.
During this podcast, Prof Bouchet discusses:
Meeting 2030 carbon targets and net-zero emission standards by 2050, as well as significantly reducing energy poverty rates in Europe, requires significant reductions in greenhouse gases and carbon fuels. Dramatically improving energy efficiency partially takes root in optimising Europe's active building stock through zero-energy and nearly zero-energy renovation. But what are zero-energy and nearly zero-energy buildings and what are the costs and challenges involved in implementing such large-scale standards?
dotLAB Radio Host Patrick Haughey (Founder and MD of Audiobrand) welcomes Stefan Pallantzas (Co-Founder and President of the Board of the Hellenic Passive House Institute) and Michele Vavallo ( H2020 project manager at Solintel) to find out more.
Listen in for an expert take sponsored by RINNO, a Horizon 2020 project that aims to deliver a set of integrated technologies and processes for managing deep renovation projects.
The European Commission states that the EU building stock currently accounts for 40% of the EU’s energy consumption and 36% of greenhouse gas emissions. How can deep renovation initiatives improve the energy efficiency of Europe's residential buildings? dotLab Radio Host Patrick Haughey (Founder and MD of Audiobrand) welcomes Lieven Vanstraelen (Partner and Senior Business Consultant at Energyinvest) and Dr. Victor Fabregat Tena (Head of the R&D Department at REGENERA) to find out more.
Listen in for the latest on two Horizon 2020 projects active in the deep renovation field, featuring insider insights into building envelope solutions, the electrification of heat production systems, energy performance contracting, and product-as-a-service (PaaS) renovation approaches. This episode of dotLAB Radio is sponsored by RINNO, a Horizon 2020 project that aims to deliver a set of integrated technologies and processes for managing deep renovation projects.
How are digital technologies transforming the construction and renovation industries? Which projects are working towards making our buildings, facilities, and public spaces smarter? Host Patrick Haughey (Founder and MD of Audiobrand) sits down with Kieran Mahon (Smart DCU Projects Facilitator Manager), Richard Kelly (Estates Manager at DCU), and Sarah Ingle (Secretary General of the Association of Consulting Engineers of Ireland) to discuss how digital tech is making Europe's built environments more energy efficient and sustainable.
Tune in to the latest dotLAB Radio episode and learn more about how deep renovation efforts are shaping our cities - and universities! - by applying technologies like 3D digital twin models to inform infrastructure development, accelerate standardisation processes, increase citizen engagement, and drive decarbonisation to better reach 2030 climate goals. This episode of dotLAB Radio is sponsored by RINNO, a Horizon 2020 project that aims to deliver a set of processes for managing deep renovation projects.
With the COVID-19 pandemic accelerating digital transformation and e-commerce adoption, digital-first start-ups are witnessing firsthand the ongoing change in consumer habits and mindsets. In this episode of dotLAB Radio, Patrick Haughey, CEO of AudioBrand, speaks to Fiona O’Carroll, Chief Operating Officer at PeachyLean, and Gary Twohig, Founder and Managing Director of FizFit. They discuss their start-up business origins and ethos, their own experience of pivoting from the corporate environment to an agile start-up and the need to balance growth and scaling with mental & physical health. Finally, they share their advice for anyone looking to start up or scale up, including the importance of leveraging authenticity, agility, community, passion and your own story.
Recent years have seen a growth in demand and the necessity for digital mental health care delivery. This has allowed organizations to provide earlier and easier access to services to help manage resilience, sleep, stress, depression, anxiety, and illnesses such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and COPD which can result from these.
The global COVID-19 pandemic has seen the need for digitized mental health supports being further accelerated and transformed. In this episode of dotLAB Radio we speak to Ken Cahill, CEO and co-founder of SilverCloud Health, the world’s leading digital mental health platform. In October 2020, Ken joined the Irish Institute of Digital Business for their TRANSFORM Health webinar series. Ken discusses the origin and growth of SilverCloud, the need for constant agility in the health sector, and the opportunities and challenges of transatlantic expansion and operation.
In this episode of dotLAB Radio, Prof Tony Dundon of University of Limerick discusses his experience of using case studies as a research method within management research. He specifically draws on his worker voice research in an Irish organisation in the mid 2000's and key lessons he learned.
In this podcast Tony covers the following areas:
+What is case study research?
+Best practice advice on setting up and carrying out interviews.
+How to interview reluctant respondents and develop rapport.
+Case studies in a post-Covid world – remote v in-person interviews.
+The importance of fully immersing oneself in the case study.
+Well known case studies and what can be learned from them.
Professor Dundon refers to two case studies in particular:
1.Interviewing Reluctant Respondents: Strikes, Henchmen and Gaelic Games
2.Accessing the Law to Enforce Employment Rights: A Case Study of Worker Activism in a Non-Union Workplace

Under the current Programme for Government, Ireland has set a target of 500,000 homes to be retrofitted to improve energy efficiency by 2030. With the European Union committed to becoming carbon neutral by 2050 under the European Green Deal, the construction industry is a key player in helping society migrate to a circular economy and cutting emissions.
Launched in June 2020, RINNO is a four-year project, funded by the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 programme, that will focus on developing solutions for the construction industry to accelerate the rate of deep renovation in energy inefficient buildings across Europe. The Irish Institute of Digital Business at Dublin City University are leading the business research on the project and are working with 17 partners across industry and academia.
In this episode of dotLAB Radio, Patrick Haughey (CEO, Audiobrand) is joined by Joseph Kilroy (Policy and Public Affairs Manager, The Chartered Institute of Building) and Dr Mohamad Kassem (RINNO Partner & Professor of Digital Construction and Engineering, Northumbria University). They discuss:
· The role of the Chartered Institute of Building in Ireland in bringing multiple stakeholders together to address sustainability in the building industry.
· The innovative technologies and processes being developed by the RINNO project to improve cost-efficiency, productivity and sustainability in European building renovation.
· An overview of deep renovation, retrofitting and the benefits these offer for public health, employment and regional rebalancing.
· How COVID-19 has presented an opportunity for developers to rethink and reimagine the built environment.
